Antonio Stradivari by Edgar Bundy 1893
Every Monday at 12:30pm, WMP Concert Hall will offer a 45 minute long chamber music concert to the public, and it is free admission with a suggested donation of $10.00. The musicians play on an Antonio Stradivari violin. The idea of the concert series is to offer high quality music to their neighbors while they take their lunch break.
